We were talking at dinner the other night about some of the things mentioned during last weeks Fan Boys pod cast. Out of nowhere my wife tells me that we can't go back to WDW until the child is at least 3yrs old.
She doesn't feel that the child would appreciate it before that. My response: I would still appreciate it!

But we've made a deal with my mother that I would pay for her to come to WDW if she would be willing to do some baby sitting. She agreed.

So, looks like my next trip won't be until 2014

First off congrats.
Second off, your wife's priorities are messed up. The good thing is, you won't be having your first child in October (baseball playoffs), the bad news is, there's a 1/7 chance it happens on a Sunday during football season (I can't really do math, but let's assume that's correct).
I've gone back and forth regarding bringing an infant to Disney World. We did it with my nephew, and it was tough - but I think that was largely because my mother wanted to play the role of overbearing grandmother. I think if you're familiar enough with the parks, and don't have the expectation that the two of you will be able to accomplish as much as you were able to prior to having a child then you can go and still enjoy yourself. If your focus is on enjoying thrill rides together, you'll have to either rent a locker (for the baby) or wait until have you have a grandparent or someone join you.
